International Uni's with RA in USA - Prof.Gringo - 08-11-2020
On another thread, someone mentioned that Amity Online University from India actually has WSCUC accreditation, which it does in fact have. So I checked a little bit and found out that a number of other universities worldwide also have RA approvals. If this was already posted, my apologies. But it could help international students who might be quite interested in such programs as well as those of us who are Americans & reside abroad.
It seems most of the foreign universities are accredited by SACSOC & WSCUC. And WSCUC has new members in the pipeline as well.
"Institutions in Latin America accredited by SACSCOC include the Mexican universities of Fundación Universidad de las Américas, Puebla; Universidad de las Americas, A.C.; Universidad de Monterrey; Tecnológico de Monterrey; Instituto Centroamericano de Administración de Empresas (INCAE or the Central American Institute of Business Administration) in Costa Rica and Nicaragua; and Keiser University Latin American Campus in Nicaragua. The SACSCOC has also accredited the American University in Dubai." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Association_of_Colleges_and_Schools
The following international institutions are currently accredited by WSCUC:
- Abu Dhabi University (United Arab Emirates)
- American University of Armenia (Republic of Armenia)
- Amity University Uttar Pradesh (India)
- Anglo-American University (Czech Republic)
- CETYS University (México)
- The University of the South Pacific (Fiji)
- United Arab Emirates University (United Arab Emirates)
- United States International University-Africa (Kenya)
- Universidad de las Americas (Ecuador)
- Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas (Peru)

So I could potentially enroll in Amity University's online degree program which costs $500/semester (10 classes!) and transfer them to a big 3 as RA credit?

Yes it looks like u can get RA credits from them. It could be very helpful with current news from TESU
